After our trip to Hawaii this became a new summer grilling favorite…..

Ingredients:


3/4 cup light shoyu sauce
1/3 cup sherry
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp minced ginger
3/4 cup Ketchup
1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
1/2 cup honey
1 1/2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
4-5lbs chicken thighs

Instructions

In a medium sized bowl, whisk together all the ingredients minus the chicken.


Reserve 1 cup sauce for basting.


Add the chicken thighs and sauce to a ziplock bag squeeze out air, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for more flavors. Flip the bag every few hours.


Reduce the reserve sauce to thicken a little to concentrate the flavors while grilling the chicken turning about every 4 minutes, then basting it with reduced marinade each time until chicken is cooked through.


Optional to grill: Smoker Pellets: 60% mesquite – 40% cherry

Pair with a side of rice or vegetable of choice….

Frugal Gastronomy was born out of Mary’s creative mind (and stomach). The desire to eat restaurant quality food at a lower price point at home.

She has the motivation and unique ability to crave something, look up some recipes out there, and modify them to taste even better.

She has the ability to eat something at a restaurant and think about how it could have been better, then come home and recreate it with her twist.

She also has the uncanny ability to find a deal and shop the sales so we have the ingredients at home so when she craves something, she doesn’t need to run out and pay full price or even “Overpay” for convenience.

She started this blog and her website to pass on this knowledge on to other foodies to enjoy……
